Josh Cartwright has been stood down from riding pending the determination of a penalty for reckless riding at Morphettville - a race won by his longterm Anna Jordsjo, Daily Mail Australia reports. At the time on the incident Jordsjo was leading the race on $4 favourite Murti and went onto win the 1250-metre race. The stewards also stood Cartwright down from all riding including trackwork. In October, Damien Oliver missed several key spring carnival meetings when he became the first Victorian jockey in a decade found guilty of reckless riding and was given a 20-meeting suspension. In 2015, Brisbane jockey Luke Tarrant was outed for six weeks, reduced to four weeks on appeal, on a reckless riding charge from the Group Three Grand Prix Stakes.
